"To me it can be sort of like a learned helplessness. Does owning a car make you more free, or does it do the opposite. It depends on the perspective. The freedom to travel around the region in your personal climate-controlled metal box vs. the freedom of maybe living a simpler, more focused life that you feel good about and possibly having an extra $11,000 every year."https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZhmclhGMj8

CityNerd is the real OG. My experience going car-free in the last year really mirror this! I'll probably publish my blog post on it soon!

@thatgeoguy on a related note you can now follow @notjustbikes in the fediverse!They even went through the trouble of setting up their own domain too...none of that just signing up on dot-social nonsense :blobsunglasses:

@msh @notjustbikes I saw that yesterday too, and followed immediately!Guess what you're really saying though is that I'm one of those @coales.co casuals then, since I didn't set up shop on @thatgeoguy.ca 🙃

@msh @notjustbikes @coales.co I suppose I should also mention that @nerd4cities is also on fedi too - had I know the account was here I would have linked you earlier.

@thatgeoguy noooo you're cool and I'm happy you chose this little place as your home!It's just that @notjustbikes is kind of a "social media channel" where the effort makes some sense (they could do a #peertube too I suppose)and in my case...well...I'm clearly a disturbed individual with too much spare time 🤪
